About: I have over 50 year experience in owning, raising, and caring for a variety of pets. Some nurtured as newborns, some as shelter animals seeking a true home, and a some in their senior years. I enjoy each of these stages from the exploration and antics that come with the curiosity of puppyhood, as well as the wisdom and temperate activity of an older animal. I come with solid references because I adore your animals and treat your home as if they were my own. My preference is for extended stays in your home; I currently cannot offer boarding. I have experience in gardening and am capable of overseeing home projects as needed for an additional fee. You can be assured that you will come home to a clean and happy household. My daily plans are centered on my visits and stays. Be assured that my time with your pet is focused on your pet and their routine! They deserve to feel happy and safe while you are away. I will be available for drop-ins 8am-7pm. Overnight and extended stays as scheduled per availability. Each critter has their own needs. I treat each with individual respect and sensitivity. They should have the freedom to be joyful whether embarking on a well deserved nap with me sitting nearby, or an active and investigative playtime we partake together. I am willing to adapt to ensure your pet gets the care to which they are accustomed. Pets are family. It is a gift for us to have the company of a devoted pet. Having always had animals in my life, I look forward to sharing time with your pet. I love knowing your pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs. I will work closely with you to understand these in advance, assuring they are cared for with the attention you would give. Particulars such as leash habits, triggers, feeding instructions, medications or need for extra time outside, places they like to hide, and favorite treats are helpful for me to be aware. The more I know about what makes your dog or cat feel relaxed and safe, the more fun we will have. Your pet will get my devoted attention. I am clear in my communication with your pets, lessening drama, thus lending trust and predictability to our visits together. I also wish to maintain trust with you through clear communication, regular updates and photos. My goal is to maintain a safe home, a relaxed pet, and peace of mind while you are away!

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
